A call from a local hospital for a possible battered child led Rapides Parish Sheriff's deputies to a Pineville residence that was cluttered with trash, rotten food and drug paraphernalia, according to a release.

The Dec. 1 call led to four arrests and the children being handed over to the Louisiana Department of Child and Family Services. It began when 30-year-old Amber Rose Boudreaux, of 106 Tartar Lane in Pineville, took her 14-month-old child to an emergency room with a severe eye injury. Boudreaux also had injuries to her face, according to the release.
